With these words feelings unsaid timidity lay unbound, unwed Last sung this tune this accolade doff now, this mask of my charade Dare I voice the music so long unsung dare I hope the tune’s not wrong Have faith in my love’s imagination Forget my past love’s hesitation Seek me thus in this new year For I do love you with hope and fear |

reminds me of a Joni Mitchell song... "it all comes down to you... constant stranger-- you're a kind person - you're a cold person too... ...You're a brute, you're an angel you can crawl, y'can fly too..." and so we meet ourselves...hugs. |

This is lovely, PDV... I think we've all experienced the angst of wanting things to go forward and yet being terrified that we'll say something to ruin it... The Sinatras sang "and then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like I love you." (Yup... I'm old. *G*) I occasionally get blasted for my openness... and that's not fun... however, having someone leave my life forever and spending decades wondering if they ever knew I loved them makes the decision easy for me... I never want that hell again! I guess I'd rather live with rejection than doubt. *S* Go for it... and good luck!! [This message has been edited by suthern (edited 12-13-2000).] |

Hi Miss deVine, Wonderful poetry here, hope and fear are good allies for one seeking the truth and you my friend deserve the very best now and always. Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |

"Dare I voice the music so long unsung dare I hope the tune’s not wrong" It must be frightening to fall in love again after so long. You describe the feelings beautifully, as always. Best of luck, my friend! "Where there is great love there are always miracles" -Cather "Love heals everything, and love is all there is"- Zukav |

To be loved - one must love - with all the risks that that implies - you've expressed this so beautifully |
